Hook-Up Question: What Happened to Foreplay?!

My friend Ellie is kind of old-fashioned: she loves antiques, old jazz albums and tea sandwiches. But she didn't think she was being particularly retro in expecting the guy she's dating to warm her up a little bit before hopping into bed.

"Oh Shallon, it was awful!" she said over Sunday brunch. "He actually said, I'm not really into foreplay, let's just get to the sex!'"

She managed to get him to agree to a paltry 10 minutes of action before he was reaching for the condom.

"It's not like foreplay is just about me, me, me," she lamented. "I love being a giver and making him feel good—I mean, isn't that kind of the point? I understand he wants to get to the main event, but c'mon, the quicker we do it, the quicker it's over!"

What do you think? Can she teach this dude to slow down? Or should she cut her losses and find a guy with a little more patience?
